Masking: A Social-Emotional Lesson About Individuality and Growth
Rather than following any didactic approach, this unit allows students to form understandings through collaboration, experience, and creative projects. In this way, the social-emotional growth “sneaks up on” our learners in an engaging, organic experience.In this unit, students explore masking—or hiding one’s true self—through video, class discussion, metaphor-making, and thoughtful hands-on activities. The heart of the unit, the Superhero Mask-up project, invites students to imagine positive gr

Wonder - Depth of Knowledge Questions
This unit includes higher level thinking questions, and a post-reading writing activity. Other ideas for post-reading activities include acting out a scene from the story, but changing an element. (Camp scene – but Auggie’s hearing aid actually saves the day.) There are other ideas on the websites listed below.
You may choose to have students read the book together as a class, and discuss the questions, use the questions as prompts in journals, or a combination of both. Another option is to us

As with all Portable Gifted and Talented units, Floating on Hope urges creativity, critical thinking, and engages students with a variety hands-on and high interest materials and activities.Sandra Bullock showed us that Hope Floats in the 1998 movie, yet John Irving insisted sorrow does not float in Hotel New Hampshire. Finally, Modest Mouse urges us to just Float On in their upbeat and ironic song. All of these viewpoints are valid for gifted learners who—like all of us—deserve to float on feel

Gifted Gripes
These are printables for your classroom walls/bulletin boards describing common "gripes" of gifted students. I like to print them on colorful card stock and laminate them. I have also used these as centers where students rotate and write down which gripes resonate with them and have a mini-group discussion at each table about the specific gripes.

A.N.C.H.O.R. Meeting
ANCHOR stands for Appreciations, News, Concerns, Highlights, Obscurities, and Reading. This can be done in discussion group orally, can be done written and then discussed in small or whole-class groups, or a one-on-one conference with the teacher/counselor/admin. I added explanations for certain letters because it is powerful to articulate why something was a highlight or an appreciation, and why you are concerned about something. This is a good way to get to know students and see where they are

Week in Review Reflection (Meta-Analysis)
This is a useful tool for students to start to see patterns in their own lives as it relates to weekly behaviors. Typically, students refer to previous Week in Reviews, and complete averages based on those categories. They then record those averages on the Week in Review Reflection. It gives students an opportunity to see a "bigger picture" and introduces/reinforces the concept of meta-analysis, or systematically assessing previous results of their own recorded data and to reach conclusions base
